Change the
rules of the game.
The Agonist (El Agonista) is a cultural, educational and community platform that turns an autobiographical experience into projects, experiences and programs for building new ways of looking at difference.
01.
What is The Agonist?
It began with the autobiographical documentary directed by Sebastián Manusovich and Pablo Pintor, which follows Sebastián’s life in relation to his disability.
That experience now expands into a cultural, educational, community and institutional platform that develops projects, experiences and programs across different territories and contexts.
Every body invents its own way of moving.
02.
What is our perspective?
It is not about including the different person in the same old game. It is about inventing a new game.
We believe in art and encounter as tools for opening questions, transforming perspectives and building new forms of coexistence.
Difference also produces knowledge.
03.
How does it happen?
Experiences that place the body and dialogue at the center.
Participatory workshops
Audiovisual installation
Programs for companies and institutions
Educational and community experiences
What we are changes when we encounter others.
05.
What do we seek to generate?
Each encounter is the beginning of something that continues.
06.
What movement can we produce together?
If you are part of an institution, organisation, school, municipality, company, festival or community, we can design an experience to activate The Agonist in your context.
